It is time again for public comment on the annual grant funding for trail maintenance and operation of facilities for off-highway vehicle (OHV) access in the Lake Tahoe Basin.
The U.S. Forest Service Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit (LTBMU) is applying for the California Department of Parks and Recreation, Off-Highway Motor Vehicle Recreation (OHMVR) Division grant application.
The 30-day grant application comment period begins Tuesday, March 6 and ends Monday, April 2, 2018.
“These annual grants provide important funds that allow the Forest Service to maintain OHV trails and facilities, repair winter storm damage and restore trailside environments, as well as providing patrolling and monitoring of these areas,” said LTBMU Trails Program Coordinator, Jacob Quinn. “I encourage anyone interested in the OHV program to comment on the state website, or contact me to discuss their ideas on these proposals.”
When finalized, the grants will be available for public review and comment on the State of California’s website at http://ohv.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=1164. During the public review and comment period, public input can be submitted online using the State of California electronic forms, or by contacting the Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit directly.
